DescriptionIBMX (28822-58-4) is a pan-specific inhibitor of phosphodiesterases (IC50=2-50 μM). Inhibition of PDEs leads to increased concentration of intracellular cAMP which activates PKA.2IBMX does not inhibit PDE8 or PDE9.3Weak adenosine receptor antagonist.4
UsesA nonspecific inhibitor of phosphodiesterases
Usesphosphodiesterase inhibitor
Uses3-Isobutyl-1-methylxanthine is used in inhibition of phenylephrine-induced release of 5-hydroxytryptamine from neuroendocrine epithelial cells of the airway mucosa (IC50 = 1.3 uM). Also inhibits ion channels in the neuromuscular junction, GH3 cells, and vascular smooth muscle cells. Inhibits the growth of carcinoma cells both in vivo and in vitro in mice.
General Description3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine/IBMX is a non-selective, non-specific inhibitor of cAMP and cGMP phosphodiesterases. IBMX can induce melanogenesis, and can be used as a positive control in melanogenesis research. In oocyte research, IBMX assists in maintaining the germinal vesicle (GV) arrest of prophase I oocytes.
DefinitionChEBI: 3-isobutyl-1-methyl-9H-xanthine is a 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine. It is functionally related to a 9H-xanthine. It is a tautomer of a 3-isobutyl-1-methyl-7H-xanthine.
